FULL INTERVIEW: NASA has fast-tracked plans to return astronauts to the moon by 2028, with US Vice President Mike Pence pledging to see a lunar return within five years 'by any means necessary'.
Space analyst and writer Dr Morris Jones says he is 'very sceptical' the return will happen by 2024.
Dr Jones says astronauts returning to the moon could be beneficial as current technology is significantly greater than when man first landed on the moon 50 years ago in 1969.
